Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe rooftop would be better if there were umbrellas to provide some shade with the sun loungers, and the rooms could do with some more hooks on the walls to hang things up!
Breakfast was great, rooms were luxurious and the pool/rooftop was an added bonus

Canadaour A/C unit wasn't working very well so we were hot at night. we did not inquire about it but we asked another guest and their A/C worked very well so we probably just had an old one.
great location, staff and breakfast !! Nice beach, definitely go for the snorkelling tour with GoDivers. Whale shark and manta ray trips were bucket list Also, take the bike and go to the south tip of the island and walk the beach at low tide

SpainThe bathroom was a bit tight. Maybe replacing the door with a sliding one would help. The wifi didn't work very well in the room, although it did work in the common areas.
The staff were super nice. The hotel is modern and clean and it's located in a great spot, towards the end of the hotel area, about 5 min walk from the bikini beach and at the start of the forest walk. The restaurant in the hotel was one of the best we tried in the island. The room was spacious with a huge bed, a/c, a small fridge and the shower was big.

ItalyBreakfast was disappointing and brought my overall rating down. While the lunch/dinner menu offers a variety of fresh fruits, breakfast only had one type of fruit each morning, and the quality wasn’t exceptional. The sweet options were also disappointing—the pancakes were good but only served twice during my seven-day stay.
The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach, and the staff are incredibly warm and welcoming—especially Kukku, who went out of his way to ensure everyone dining there felt well taken care of. The food is affordable and delicious; I’d highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

United StatesThis is a lovely place to stay. The facilities, restaurant and staff are wonderful. I booked extra days so I could ensure the best chances of seeing whale sharks. I am especially grateful to the head of activities and reception staff who worked very hard to make sure I had opportunities to try to see them (along with good luck wishes!). And I am happy to report that I was victorious!!! Thank you for a wonderful stay and a once in a lifetime experience.

IrelandHotel is perfectly located in the middle of the island. Rooms are specious and very clean with toiletries and drinking water refilled every day. Staff is a definitely a highlight of our stay - eager to help always with a smile on their faces. Food in the hotel restaurant is absolutely delicious. Go Divers organised scuba diving and snorkelling for hotel guests. Contact them or hotel to find out the weekly trips schedule ,especially if you wanna do whale shark trip, to make sure it’s aligned with your stay because other hotels won’t let you join them. I highly recommend this accommodation and scuba diving with Go Divers.

United StatesMore whale shark tour options would have been nice as they were only running full day tours during our stay (we were there for 3 full days) at $137 pp. The tour was fine though catered to scuba as well leading to some waiting around. I struggled to find other tour options outside the hotel as well
The breeze was great spot. Rooms were spotless, water pressure good, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. The restaurant on the property was one of the best on the island and it showed as it was full everynight

United StatesThis is not necessarily dhiguveli breeze specific but it seems like you have to use their in house dive company for the excursions. They have the week already planned out so there’s not much wiggle room for what you want to see when.
Very clean and comfortable rooms, very close to bikini beach, good on site restaurant and nice staff.

SlovakiaHigher tax in the rooftop restaurant which was in total 28%. If you go to the next hotel restaurant Dhiguveli Breeze, there’s the same menu as in the rooftop restaurant in Dhiguveli Maldives with only 18% of tax.
We got an update to a 3* hotel Dhiguveli Maldives. We loved our comfortable room with an air conditioning and a balcony. The location of the hotel was great, just 5 minutes of walking to the beach. A big thanks goes to Radžu (I’m sorry if it’s written incorrectly) from the rooftop hotel restaurant. He is the friendliest guy, that we have ever met on our trip.

SlovakiaWe had a wonderful holiday in the Maldives, staying at Dhiguveli Breeze on Dhigurah Island, and our overall impression was excellent. This place offers an outstanding price-to-quality ratio, which truly exceeded our expectations. Cleanliness and comfort The rooms were perfectly cleaned every day, and we always returned to a fresh and tidy room in the morning. This attention to cleanliness significantly enhanced our stay and contributed to our overall comfort. The staff – the heart of this place The best part of our stay was undoubtedly the staff. The waiters and all the employees were incredibly positive, always willing to help, and their smiles never left their faces. Their genuine approach and care played the biggest role in making this vacation so memorable for us. Wi-Fi as a minor downside Although there were occasional Wi-Fi signal issues in the room, it worked fine at the reception, so it wasn’t a big issue for us. On the contrary, we saw it as an opportunity to completely relax and enjoy the beauty of the island without the distractions of the online world. Conclusion Dhiguveli Breeze on Dhigurah is the perfect place for those seeking great value for money, cleanliness, and excellent service. The surrounding nature was breathtaking, and it added to the overall magical atmosphere of the trip. While the island itself could benefit from more focus on cleanliness in public areas, this is not something the hotel is responsible for. Our expectations were met and even exceeded. If you’re looking for a place to unwind, enjoy stunning surroundings, and feel genuinely welcomed, we highly recommend this accommodation!

United StatesThe guesthouse had a bit of a hostel feel to it as it had a foozball and billiards table. I would have preferred a lounge in that space to be able to sit somewhere communally after a meal. I didn't love Dhigurah- it was too built up for me. The excursions offered from in-house were what you'd expect at a resort - they were good and we felt taken care of.
They had a nice breakfast. I had some tummy issues during our week there and the chef was great in helping me meet my dietary needs. The restaurant is one of the top two on the island. For this alone, I was glad we stayed there. The head waiter Cuckoo (incorrect spelling) was a superior manager and uber attentive to the guests needs. He impressed us from the first of many meals. We ate elsewhere but repeatedly came back to the menu and the service at Dhiguveli Breeze's "Aveli Restaurant". Udara at the front desk always had a ready smile and was so keen to help me with a special gesture for my fro a future guest who's coming for her honeymoon. I liked the location of it because it felt private and yet was right in the thick of things. The hotel manager was genuinely interested in his guests. He was so pleasant to interact with!

Germany- *Expensive diving*: The cost of diving was on the high side, with the *first dive* priced at *93*. While the diving experience was great, the pricing felt a bit steep compared to other places in the region. - *Snorkeling gear rental*: Renting snorkeling gear cost *10 per day*, which added up quickly if you wanted to snorkel more than once during your stay.
*Review of Dhiguveli Breeze, Maldives* *What we liked:* - *Extremely helpful staff*: The staff at Dhiguveli Breeze went above and beyond to accommodate every request we had. They were always available and ready to assist, making our stay incredibly smooth and enjoyable. One standout moment was when they *organized plane transport* for us to Male after we were stranded due to bad weather, and all speedboats had been canceled. We really appreciated their proactive approach to ensuring we didn’t face any difficulties. - *Great food*: The food at the resort was consistently excellent. Every meal was delicious and satisfying, with a good variety of options. - *Great location*: The resort is situated in a fantastic spot, offering both *relaxing seclusion* and easy access to beautiful beaches and the stunning natural surroundings of the Maldives. - *Amazing New Year’s Eve celebration*: The *NYE dinner* was fantastic, and the *organization* was top-notch. It was a memorable experience to ring in the New Year with such great food and an impressive setup. - *Very clean rooms*: Our room was spotless and well-maintained throughout our stay. The *air conditioning* (ACP) was a welcome addition, ensuring we stayed cool and comfortable even in the tropical heat.
